I received a carpet pad that wasn't the size I'd ordered. However, I did have this carpet pad out of the packaging and stepped on it. It's a nice weight with good grip. I think it would make a fine rug pad. It would definitely give you some softness until the pile of a rug. As far as it holds up under traffic, I don't know. After I found it wasn't the right size, I let Overstock know and they handled it from there.

I have nothing but good things to say about this rug pad. The online description is accurate. The size is exactly 9'x12'. It provides a bit of cushion plus excellent non-slip gripping beneath my recently purchased Safavieh Valencia Grey/Gold Distressed Silky Polyester 9'x12' rug. We've got a house full of rugs so we'll be reordering additional pads.

Great thick non-slip pad

Verified Purchase

Bought this pad for my large 9x13 rug going on my living room solely based on all the high ratings. I must say, it is heavy, thick and does not slide on my hardwood floor. It does its job well while providing a nice cushion. It feels nice to walk on the rug. It's more expensive than the other more basic pads but I feel the benefits are worth the premium.

Delivery was right on time. My husband laid it down in our large living room area with ease. It does not slip or move at all! Just what I expected & I was able to trim it to our fitting with normal household scissors... we bought the 9 x12 size.

Nothing fancy or complicated about decently made rug pads. This one is easy to work with and does the trick. It keeps my rug from slipping and it protects the wood floors without leaving residue behind. This pad is also thicker and more cushy underfoot than the other brands I purchased. That can be a plus or a minus, depending on what one is looking for in a pad.

I purchased the 9x12 pad for this rug size and it was easy to trim the 6 inches on one side. The shag carpet is so comfortable with this pad.

I would get the 9 x 12 and trim it down. That's what I did. Hope this helps!

We had the same situation, we choose to trim 6". Fantastic rug pad worth the effort to trim.

Depending on whether or not there is furnishings to be place on the rug i.e. sofas, chairs etc, I found that buying slightly smaller worked great. The padded areas underfoot where children play, adults occasionally sit or kneel is what's essential. Depending on the type of rug also influences the sizing. Lighter weight fringed requires a fair overlap for edges, heavier bound edges are fine with just an inch or so. I love, love my rug pads!! So comfortable!

I am using it on hardwood floors, and I haven't had any problems. It does have a rubber/latex back that touches the floor.

I have been using this pad on our hardware floors since this past February. I recently had to pull it back to move our Christmas tree into position in one corner of the room. When I did so, I found no visible signs of any adverse effects to my floor. This is a high-quality pad and I will continue to use it. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

I've had one on my hardwoods for three years. We've had no problems. In fact, i purchased two more because I like them so much. Also, because it has a latex backing that helps it stay down on the hardwoods and because it is heavy-ish, it does not allow dirt to creep underneath and scratch to floors like other pads I've used.

I have been using this pad on my hardwood floors for about two months now and I have not had any issues with my wood floors getting scratched. Love the rubber side down as it keeps the rug from moving.

I was concerned with that problem and that is why I chose this pad-works great and gives the right "feel" under the carpet. Not to worry and our floor was a water-born finish (a bit softer than others).

We purchased these rug pads to use on our hardwood floors. No scratches on the flooring. We roll the rug and pad every week to clean the floor.
I wanted the felt rug pads. I was concerned the all latex pads would mark the floors. These really work, rugs don't shift, feel comfortable.
I would not know about staining, no small children in our home. We do have two 120 pound dogs, and so far so good.

It is dual purpose for hardwoods or carpet. I have it on my hardwood and love it. It has a good cushion for thinner carpeting.

I have had numerous sizes (I purchased 8 of these pads for under all of my rugs) of this rug pad and all are on hard wood. They have been in place for about a year and I have not had any staining or scratching of my oak hardwood floors.

"I also have been warned that pure felt will never react with flooring but that it's hard to know what latex or recycled rubber or recycled latex really are and which will and won't react with a wood floor product. It is also not clear what "felt" means. Felts can range from synthetic to non-synthetic (wool, cotton, etc). The material descriptions often don't clearly describe the material. In this particular case, "100-percent recycled fiber build with rubber/latex" is mentioned in one place and "synthetic fiber" and "contains latex" are mentioned in another place. So it appears that this product has two components: 1) recycled fiber and 2) rubber/latex. What is synthetic fiber and what is the % recycled fiber and % rubber/latex?"

I can get to only 3 corners of the pad and there is no tag on those corners. The latex is in contact with the flooring and the felt is in contact with the rug. It has not been down long enough to determine if the floor will react with the rubber/latex material. The rug does not slip. I know what you mean and am sorry that I cannot answer your question more fully.

The felt on top is the blue recycled fiber about 1/3 of an inch, the bottom is covered with a paper thin piece of rubber/laytex honeycomb. The rubber feels similiar to those thin white nonslip pads(more vinyl than laytex). It's been on my 1950 oak wood floors that had been freshly waxed(Holloway House"Quick Shine") for two months with heavy use without leaving any impression or residual. The rug stays in place well.

My rug pad works, which makes me satisfied. Your question is way too complicated for me. I'm not stupid, just old and trusting.

Margaret S.

A:

You are right, the product is two components. A felt like material (you see that side in the photos) that has a rubber/latex layer on one side. The rubber/latex layer provides the slip resistance against the floor. I have these under a variety of area rugs on old wood floors for a few months now, and I have not noticed any discoloration of my floors in that time (not a long time, admittedly).

This products is perfect for all floors, including engineered hard wood. It is double sided so it will not slip, stick or stain. As for natural rubber, there is no factual evidence that any one pad works better than another so it really comes down to application, brand and preference. However, in my opinion, our double sided pad is significantly better suited to padding the rug as well as preventing it from slipping.

These pads are wonderful. I have them over tile floors, but I don't see how the felt would make any marks on any floor, even if you have radiant heat. Thery are heavy, which would prevent sliding. The smallest I have is the 5x8 and it isn't moving. The pads will also make your rug feel more plush and help extend it's life.

"I have a wool rug that is 9' by 12'. The rug has been sent out for cleaning due to severe pet stains. I need to replace the rug pad as well. FAQ's on rug pads advise that the pad should be about an inch smaller than the actual rug. i do not have space to trim it myself. Is this pad actually 9' by 12' or a bit smaller as advised in the FAQ's."

"How close to the edge of the rug should this pad be? In other words, if I have a 9 x 12 rug, should I leave a few inches of the rug overlapping the pad? Or do I place the pad right up to the edge of the rug? Thanks for your help!"

Hello Nuncia, this rug pas would fit well with your rug dimensions. If it hangs over the pad a little bit, that is preferred. However, if the edges match up, that will also be comfortable. Thank you for shopping with us!

I have ordered 2 from overstock in the past which I have liked. Need a new one for the rug order I just placed

Hello diy2013, This rug pad is safe for use on hardwood floors, however because polyurethane tends to yellow over time we cannot guarantee the space under the pad will age the same as the exposed finish. Thank you for shopping with us.
